The phone number for Home Depot credit card payments
Call 1-800-677-0232 to pay your Home Depot credit card by phone. This is the customer service line for The Home Depot Consumer Credit Card, issued by Synchrony Bank. You can reach this number 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
When you call, have your credit card number, account number, or the phone number associated with your account ready. The automated system will guide you through payment options, or you can stay on the line to speak with a representative if you need help.
If you have a Home Depot Business Credit Card instead, the payment phone number is different — call 1-866-383-8564. Make sure you are calling the right number for your card type, as the systems are separate.

What information you need before calling
Gather these details before you dial so the call moves faster. You will need either your Home Depot credit card number or the phone number linked to your account. The automated system uses one or the other to pull up your account.
Have the payment amount ready — you decide how much to pay, whether it is the full balance, the minimum payment, or something in between. If you are paying from a checking or savings account, have your bank account number and routing number available. If you are paying with another credit card, have that card number ready.
If you are calling about a past-due balance or have questions about your account beyond making a payment, write down those questions before you call so you do not forget them while on hold.
How the automated payment system works
When you call 1-800-677-0232, an automated voice system answers first. It will ask you to enter your card number or account number using your phone keypad. Once your account is pulled up, the system confirms your identity by asking for your zip code or the last four digits of your Social Security number.
After verification, the system presents your current balance and minimum payment due. You then choose how much to pay and what account to pay from — a bank account or another card. The system confirms the amount and the date the payment will post, then processes it when ready.
If you run into trouble with the automated system or prefer to speak with someone, press 0 or say "representative" at any prompt. Wait times vary depending on call volume, but representatives are available 24/7.
Payment methods accepted over the phone
Synchrony accepts payments from a checking account, savings account, or another credit card when you call. The system does not accept cash, checks, or money orders by phone — those methods require a mailed payment or in-person payment at a Home Depot store.
If you pay from a bank account, the payment posts within one business day. If you pay with another credit card, the payment posts the same day but you may incur a cash advance fee from that card's issuer, so check your card's terms first.
There is no fee charged by Synchrony or Home Depot for paying by phone, regardless of which payment method you choose.
When payments post and how to track them
Payments made by phone before 8 p.m. Eastern Time typically post to your account the next business day. Payments made after 8 p.m. or on weekends and holidays post the following business day. If your payment due date falls on a weekend or holiday, Synchrony treats the next business day as your due date.
After you complete your payment over the phone, the system gives you a confirmation number. Write this down or take a screenshot. You can use this number to track your payment if you call back or if you need proof that you paid on time.
Log into your account on the Home Depot website or mobile app to see your updated balance within 24 hours of payment. Your statement will also reflect the payment on your next billing cycle.
Other ways to pay your Home Depot credit card
Phone payment is one option, but you have other routes depending on what works for your schedule. You can pay online through the Synchrony website or the Home Depot mobile app — both let you set up one-time payments or recurring automatic payments.
You can also mail a check or money order to the address on your statement. Mail payments take 7 to 10 business days to arrive and post, so send them well before your due date if you want to avoid late fees.
Some Home Depot stores accept in-person credit card payments at the customer service desk. Call your local store to confirm they offer this service before you visit, as not all locations do.
What to do if you cannot reach the payment line
If you call 1-800-677-0232 and experience a technical issue or unusually long wait times, try calling back after a few minutes. High call volume during business hours and around payment due dates can create delays.
If the phone line is down or you cannot get through, use the online payment option instead. Log into your account at the Synchrony website or Home Depot app to make an when ready payment without waiting on hold.
If you have a dispute about a charge or need to discuss your account in detail, a phone representative can help more than the automated system. Calling during off-peak hours — early morning or late evening — usually means shorter wait times.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I pay my Home Depot credit card at a Home Depot store?
Some Home Depot locations accept credit card payments at the customer service desk, but not all do. Call your local store ahead of time to ask whether they take payments. If they do, bring your card or account number and the payment amount in cash or check form.
What happens if I miss my payment due date?
If your payment does not post by your due date, Synchrony charges a late fee and may report the missed payment to credit bureaus. Call 1-800-677-0232 when ready to make a payment. If you are more than 30 days late, your interest rate may increase and your account could be suspended.
Can I set up automatic payments by phone?
The phone system does not set up recurring automatic payments — you can only make one-time payments by calling. To set up automatic payments, use the Synchrony website, the Home Depot app, or call and ask a representative to help you enroll in autopay.
Is there a fee for paying by phone?
No, Synchrony and Home Depot do not charge a fee for phone payments. However, if you pay from another credit card, that card's issuer may charge a cash advance fee, so check your card's terms before using that method.
How long does a phone payment take to show up on my account?
Payments from a bank account post within one business day. Payments from another credit card post the same day. You will see the updated balance in your online account or app within 24 hours, and it will appear on your next statement.
